24 Best Seafood Restaurants near Nicholasville

“Stopped in later in the evening with my family. Business was light. The restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms. We ordered a family meal for four, which was plenty. Didn't know they had spicy filets now. Got our half original and spicy. Okra was good but needed salt. Staff was very helpful in helping us make side choices. Note that half of the sides have .89 upcharge.

Parking: Number of slots in the parking lot easily equal building capacity“

“First time there and I got the donut burger.
It was incredible (though I wonder if one donut split in half would have been sufficient).
The burger was more of a smash burger and it was cooked really well. The fries were garnished and seasoned and had good flavor.
My only point of contention is that the location shares the space (and bathrooms) with the gas station next door which is a bit less than desirable, so here's hoping they find a new location in the future.
That said, this place will go on our lunch rotation. Really good stuff.“

“The four of us shared focaccia, tallow fries, and one order of crispy potatoes was not enough, so we ordered a second 😂 My Alaskan-raised husband was so happy with the halibut and I enjoyed the fiori so much.
The atmosphere is amazing, definitely something new that Lexington has been needing.
We had a great server with great recommendations and she was very knowledgeable.

“The best sushi I had in KY. Service and presentation were exquisite. A little gem in Lexington.“

“During our visit to Kentucky’s Bourbon Country, we had the distinct pleasure of dining at what has quickly become our favorite restaurant in the area. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The food was nothing short of outstanding—flavorful, expertly prepared, and perfectly paired with a diverse and impressive collection of bourbons. What truly set this restaurant apart, however, was the warm and welcoming atmosphere, which made it feel like more than just a meal out, but rather an experience shared with friends. The staff’s hospitality and dedication to making every guest feel at home contributed to what was undoubtedly a memorable evening. We are already eagerly anticipating our next visit and look forward to enjoying another fantastic meal, discovering more exceptional bourbons, and sharing the experience with some great friends. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Bourbon Country region—whether you're a bourbon enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates great food and service.“

“Let me just start out with how great the food is here! We got 2 lbs of the King crab legs and they were delicious! We also had head-on shrimp and green mussels which were also amazing! Cajun sauce was also great! They were HUGE! Our waitress was Mackenzie and she was AWESOME! Kept our drinks full, was very knowledgeable about the menu and was very helpful! Highly recommend asking for her when/if you decide to eat here!!“

“Today my bestie and I tried Korean BBQ for the first time and it was AMAZING!!! First off the staff (I didn’t get the young ladies name) was BEYOND amazing she helped us choose our food and showed us all that we needed to do with cooking our own food. She was super sweet. The food was freaking amazing! We had the meat and seafood. Our first time trying squid and it was pretty good. We felt warm and welcomed here and it was truly an authentic experience. We definitely plan on returning to try more things.“

“I don't know his name, but the waiter we had there last time was a guy I'd go to war with. Food's always excellent. Had the house special chimichanga, I forget what it was on the menu, testament to good margaritas. Had the itis well into the next day.“

“We love everything about this place! The servers are sweet, knowledgeable, and on the ball, the atmosphere is old-world but clean, and the food is so good I'm pretty sure if I peeked into the kitchen I'd see a team of Nonas stirring all the pots. Our new favorite in Lexington 💚“

“2nd time here and I can’t say enough about the pecan crusted pork tenderloins!!! Have to try this dish when I return home. Desserts were huge! Loved the carrot cake!“

“My mom and her fiancé drove in from Gulf Shores, AL to attend my son’s (her grandson’s) college graduation from UK. I was able to book them 2 night at the Clarion for the event. After Saturday’s commencement, we wanted to celebrate. My mom and her fiancé were so impressed with Sedona Taphouse from the previous evening, that they treated us to an early dinner along with some drinks there. It was amazing from the appetizers to the drinks to the entrees. Our server was a delight, but we also had the pleasure of meeting the GM, Ben as he came over to not only check on us, but to shake my son’s hand and personally congratulate him on his achievement. He really made a big deal about his accomplishment and even went as far to pay for his meal, drinks and dessert. So unexpected! Ben went above & beyond and that food and atmosphere was outstanding. We frequent Lexington often, I’ve found my new spot for lunch or dinner. Thank you Ben!! We can’t thank you enough for making Mason’s special day even more memorable.“

“Delicious! The best Mongolian chicken! I swear I have searched all of Lexington looking for this Mongolian chicken recipe, and nothing else compares!“

“Hot food. Made to order. I enjoy the country style fish and hushpuppies. The $5.99 feature meal is great value. I go there with my young grandchildren...they really enjoy the food, too. The restaurant had a steady crowd, but we were served timely.

Kid-friendliness: My grandchildren enjoy the food. The staff are pleasant.“

“We always enjoy sitting outside at Palmers! Wonderful food and fantastic service!!!“

“We had Katie as our server and she was as amazing! The food was amazing. Fresh and flavorful. We had the chicken taquito appetizer (do not skip these!! DELICIOUS) and shared the chicken Parmesan pizza with Alfredo noodles! OMG!! Didn’t have to touch the salt or pepper and that’s saying a lot with me. I was a first time visitor because I had always heard cheesecake was overhyped, but my experience was the opposite of that. I will be back, and I will be back often.“
